I can highly recommend her.  In additon we were also joined by the gorgeous Danielle Robinson who is one of the most talented makeup artists in Brisbane.  The day went off without any dramas, and trust me when i say there was alot fit into the day.  So well done to everyone involved in having this wedding go so seemlessly

Merry Christmas everyone

We have so much fun shooting on location and would love to have a chat to you about your family photos.

These are my two beautiful girls Holly who is 6 and Scarlett who is 3.  They like most sibling love have lots of fun together,  most of the time! They are just growing up so fast

The Brisbane Studio has been diversifying with the type of photography that we have been doing lately,  As you know XSiGHT is a very well established Wedding Photography Studio and we have studios located in Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney and Darwin.   We also have a portrait studio located in Melbourne.

An introduction to the Brisbane studio

Although we have been focused on Wedding and Portraits over the last few years we are branching more into the commercial world recently completing photography for Commonwealth Bank, The new ABC Learning Childcare centers known as Goodstart, Some Development Companies photographing real estate and renovations of commercial properties that were in need of a professional image for either their marketing material or prospectus.

So I thought we would give you a little look at some of the recent corporate works of the xsight studio

Corporate Head Shots

As a business it is vitally important that the image that you have give a good and first and lasting impression.  Corporate Head shots are available at your work place or in our studio and below is a couple of examples

We photographed Charlotte a few months back,  Charlotte was the winner of the 8 week challenge at Palates loosing an incredible amount of weight, 2XU (amazing gym clothes )was one of the sponsors for Studio Palates challenge as were we.  The below image was requested for 2XU with the winner in their clothing.
Body Building has always fascinated me and when Brenten came to us with something in mind to promote himself as a  body builder we jumped at the chance, Brenten believe it or not is a vegetarian and he has his own website dedicated to Body Builders to help them achieve similar results.  Brenten won 2009 Mr Natural Universe which is a pretty massive accomplishment.
Ideal Brides Magazine

This was a shoot that we did for Ideal Brides about 12 months ago which then needed a few gowns photographed for local suppliers for their wedding magazine.

On a recent shoot to we did  a promotion for a coffee shop,   as well Luen (the great model) was also looking for some work to increase her modeling portfolio.

Renovations

We had a job recently of photographing the renovations for a number of hotels around the Brisbane and Gold Coast area.  This particular development company did all of the renovations for the Australian Nash which is an new area for private parties upstairs

the below image is from the recently renovated bar downstairs

Below is the Lonestar tavern at mermaid beach in Queensland which also was fully refurbished

As some of you may know the Victory Hotel in the city recently had a fire that destroyed the majority of the Hotel,  with the renovations now complete we were able to get some images of the finished areas

Steam Cafe at Southbank needed some new images for their menu boards,  we photographed the whole menu.  I must say that this was  a tasty experience because someone had to eat the food when it was all finished,  and there was lots of food!

Ever!) http://www.xsight.com.au/blog/2010/07/jamie-and-stephanie-the-most-excited-bride-ever/ http://www.xsight.com.au/blog/2010/07/jamie-and-stephanie-the-most-excited-bride-ever/#comments Thu, 29 Jul 2010 00:00:20 +0000 xsight brisbane http://www.xsight.com.au/blog/?p=1580 I think that it is official that Stephanie was the most excited bride of the year for XSiGHT Brisbane,  Stephanie and her sister (Kathryn) were so excited when I arrived at their house to photograph and she looked fabulous.  They had an amazing day and they also have and a very loving family.  They had a good contrast for their bridal party with 1 on the girls side and 4 on the boys side.   I think Jamie needed the help of all the boys to make sure that Stephanie didn’t get to excited and burst.

Everyone was pretty calm at the boys house,  they got stuck into a few beers nice and early before we headed over to the girls house to have a bit of fun shooting in some nice light.  The wedding was held at Macarthur Park Gardens at Alexandra Hills, the staff had the ceremony running like clockwork!  We were out just in time to go up to the Cleveland Lighthouse for some photos before heading back to the courtyyard at Cleveland for their reception and same day slideshow.

Congratulations Steph and Jamie
